Thumbs up Mods

Don't give up now, your ahead of 3000 other SVX owners with the trubo intercooled project car. A lot of us wish we had your brains and abilities to get our cars to the point you have. Like everything else "all things pass in there own time" college will too.

Drive fast, drive safe, and be happy.

update yay!

Hi all
Well I got an update on my turbo. The dumnass who built it for me put the wrong bearings in it. So that is why it never worked. The rebuild is done and so the car should be back on the road next Friday! well I am going to Las vegas for the long weekend talk to you all when I get back.

That's awesome! I assume the dumb-butt corrected his mistake for free?!

Sweet, dude! You must be psyched once again.

Vegas? Good break from finals. Don't lose too much money... but if you wanna win a lot, then that sounds like a good idea!

WooHoooooo!
The car runs! yay! I boosted today for the first time. I heard the turbo spool and the BOV. I have been working on this project for years now and now I get something for it! It is the only 5-speed turbo SVX in the world. not to mention the only one with a frontmount.
